Multiple Choice
Consider the following vector error correction (VECM) model: yt = yt-5 +
1 yt-1 + 11efcd90_39fd_be4b_b057_81d80004b874_TB7071_002 yt-2 + 11efcd90_39fd_be4b_b057_81d80004b874_TB7071_003 yt-3 + 11efcd90_39fd_be4b_b057_81d80004b874_TB7071_004 yt-4 + ut
Where yt is a k* 1 vector of variables, and ut is a k* 1 vector of disturbances.
Which of the following statements is true of the VECM?
A) Johansen's test for cointegration centres on the rank of the matrix 11efcd90_39fd_be4b_b057_81d80004b874_TB7071_001
B) If the variables yt are cointegrated, 11efcd90_16b9_935a_b057_bb82007e6039_TB7071_00 will be of full rank
C) If the rank of 11efcd90_16b9_935a_b057_bb82007e6039_TB7071_00 is zero, the variables are cointegrated
D) Provided that all of the series in y are nonstationary, the rank of 11efcd90_16b9_935a_b057_bb82007e6039_TB7071_00 can be at most k-1.
